Comments: The show begins with Eric asking "Did you like Santana?". The band gets into several nice extended jams, the first about 9
minutes into "I Shot the Sheriff". Yvonne Elliman really shines with a simply beautiful performance of "Can't Find My Way Home", which is also
highlighted by a great harmonica solo. Recorded the day after Eric's performance with the Rolling Stones at Madison Square Garden in New
York City, before "Mainline Florida" asks the crowd "Did you see the Stones when they were here?" Who sings vocals on "Mainline"? It sure
doesn't sound like EC. Please email if you know. Typically weird band introductions for the
period from EC: "I'd like to introduce the band in case mumble mumble ... Yvonne Elliman, sitting on the couch ... George Terry fiddling with his knobs ... Monkey Oldaker, twitching as usual ...
Carl 'D' ... Dickie Sims on good looks ... Marcy on high vocals and frustration ... I'm Roy Rogers!". A fun show - recommended.
